Across the 25 most recent Grand Rapids entries, the only disclosed round above $10M is HealthBridge’s $20M on 2025-12-19; the next-largest disclosed amounts are $10M (The Candied Yam on 2026-04-22) and $6M (BISSELL Pet Foundation on 2026-02-25), so $20M is a clear outlier versus the rest of the disclosed figures. Another outlier is Total Fire Protection, Inc. (2026-02-10), which is listed with “undisclosed” funding while nearby entries span $10K to $6M.
The list concentrates in a narrow temporal window: from the most recent 2026-05-20 (Atomic Object, $1M) back to 2021-01-07 (MaxOne, $4M). Stage and disclosure also cluster: “Series Unknown” appears repeatedly, and “undisclosed” amounts show up across multiple companies (e.g., webAI on 2026-01-13; Woodchuck.AI on 2025-12-16; XcelABLE on 2023-04-01). Sector repetition is limited, but Artificial Intelligence (AI) appears in multiple rows (webAI 2026-01-13, Woodchuck.AI 2025-12-16, BAMF Health 2024-07-09, and others), indicating a thematic concentration rather than a single-city geography issue (all rows are Grand Rapids, Michigan).

Frequently asked
What’s the largest disclosed round in Grand Rapids among these 25 entries, and how isolated is it versus the rest?
HealthBridge’s $20M round on 2025-12-19 is the only disclosed amount above $10M in the rows shown; the closest disclosed peer levels are $10M (The Candied Yam on 2026-04-22) and $6M (BISSELL Pet Foundation on 2026-02-25).
Do the most recent rounds cluster in time, or are they spread evenly across years?
They cluster near the top of the table: the newest entry is Atomic Object on 2026-05-20 ($1M), while the oldest shown is MaxOne on 2021-01-07 ($4M). Within that span, several entries land in 2025–2026 (for example BISSELL Pet Foundation on 2026-02-25 and HealthBridge on 2025-12-19), with fewer rows earlier than 2024-03-13 (CQL, amount undisclosed).
How much of this list is missing disclosed amounts, and which companies illustrate the pattern?
“Undisclosed” amounts appear multiple times, including Total Fire Protection, Inc. (2026-02-10), webAI (2026-01-13), Woodchuck.AI (2025-12-16), and XcelABLE (2023-04-01). That means comparisons based on disclosed dollar amounts are uneven because several rounds (e.g., Corium on 2022-10-20; webAI on 2026-01-13) can’t be placed numerically.
Is the stage mix dominated by a single label, or is it fragmented?
Stage labels are fragmented, but “Series Unknown” is the most common classification in the rows (e.g., Atomic Object 2026-05-20; Wedge 2026-01-08; BISSELL Pet Foundation 2026-02-25; HealthBridge 2025-12-19). Disclosed stage-specific rounds appear as well, such as Seed (Antrum $3M on 2023-12-18; The Patient Company $3M on 2023-09-13) and Series A (webAI is labeled Series A on 2026-01-13, though the amount is undisclosed).
Are there sector clusters worth attention in Grand Rapids, based on repeated categories?
Artificial Intelligence (AI) shows up repeatedly: webAI (Series A, 2026-01-13, undisclosed), Woodchuck.AI (Seed, 2025-12-16, undisclosed), and BAMF Health (2024-07-09, $5M). Other repeated categories are less prominent across the 25 rows—for example, Health Care appears in multiple entries (e.g., The Patient Company 2023-09-13 Seed for $3M and ADHD Online 2023-07-20 Series A with undisclosed amount), but the strongest concentration is on AI labels specifically.
Which entries are most distinct as outliers on either size or disclosure?
On size, the $20M HealthBridge round (2025-12-19) stands far above other disclosed figures like $6M (BISSELL Pet Foundation, 2026-02-25) and $500K (BFKW, 2024-11-18). On disclosure, several entries have “undisclosed” amounts despite nearby disclosed peers in the same time period, such as Total Fire Protection, Inc. on 2026-02-10 and Wedge on 2026-01-08 ($2M), making them the practical outliers for numerical analysis.
